| February 17, 2006 -- the very day that I met with my apartmentmates for the new (2nd and last) term - 2 cousins of mine (Rachel and Joanna) from our father's side, and their cousin (Janelle) on their mother's side. For me, life here in Beijing has never been the same. Being in this setting started off a string of events that allowed me to realize that God or some Divine Being has made it possible for me to meet Janelle, and the other people that I am meant to meet in the future, also those that I have already met in my past, along my life's path towards my growth. I have to decide on whether i want to grow, to learn to take risks, to learn to let go, to learn to accept myself wholly, both the good and the bad, or to just stay the same and not move on at all. But i chose to grow, and i am really glad that i made that decision despite being unsure, by just following what is in my heart. To learn to embrace life, to embrace myself, to embrace the world, to learn to love: without barriers to myself, openly to the world and not to just one, but to a lot others... |
